Grid computing is considered as the ultimate solution for the scientific computing community. The main accent was first put on the computational side, as the other factors, such as network and storage, were considered as given. Logistical Networking started to fill the gap in the research of storage aspects of grid, and is now widely accepted and known as a mechanism to manage distributed storage resources, in an Internet-style way. In this paper we would like to show the advantages that the adoption of IPv6 can provide to the Internet Backplane Protocol(IBP), that can be considered the foundation stone of Logistical Networking, and therefore to grid systems. On top of it, IBP allows mixed IPv4/IPv6 environments to coexist, providing a very elegant way of moving data between grids based on different networking protocols.
